Please be aware that this is not a rapid pace collection of tricks. This DVD is more of a tutorial
in creating & presenting a powerful mentalist act. Sure Max goes over 7 and 1/2 effects (some
really good), but this isn't really the point of this DVD. Instead it teaches you how to take
risks, think on your feet, mind the details and interact with your audience. Don't let the Internet
demo video make you think Max is boring his audience to tears, the full performance is MUCH better.
Overall a very good DVD to take you to 'the next level' in your performance abilities. Minor
quibbles: the DVD is kind of pricey and Max didn't use his 'guest stars' to their fullest.
Otherwise, lots of educational value here from one of the great thinkers and historians of magic.
A great education in stagecraft
